Giants' Taquan Mizzell: Shifts to IR
The New York Giants placed Taquan Mizzell (undisclosed) on injured reserve Thursday, per the NFL's official transaction report.Mizzell has only handled nine carries in his NFL career, and he's not a realistic candidate to handle offensive work for the Giants even if healthy this season. Still, with Saquon Barkley (knee) recovering from an ACL tear and not officially committed to a Week 1 return, it's worth keeping an eye on New York's reserve options. Mizzell can be activated from IR at any point during training camp.
